Killing Them Softly Blu-ray Review

Monday, April 29th, 2013

Markie Trattman (Ray Liotta) runs high-stakes card games for the mob. Way back when, he stole from one of the pots and lived to gloat about it. Knowing that if it’s taken again Markie will be suspected, a man known as Squirrel (Vincent Curatola, who played Johnny Sack on HBO’s THE SOPRANOS) enlists a pair [...]

Shia LaBeouf to join Brad Pitt in Fury

Tuesday, April 23rd, 2013

The WWII tank film FURY is starting to pick up a little traction.  With Sony producing, David Ayer writing and directing, and Brad Pitt set to star, FURY just needs to fill the rest of the cast.  Today we get word that TRANSFORMERS star Shia LaBeouf is in talks to play one of the five-man [...]

Brad Pitt searches for a zombie cure in the new trailer for World War Z

Saturday, March 23rd, 2013

I feel like Brad Pitt‘s WORLD WAR Z has gotten a bad rap and the film is still three months away from hitting theaters.  Sure, the film had its fair share of production problems and re-shoots, but I like everything we’ve seen so far and from all accounts, it looks like Brad Pitt gives a [...]

Brad Pitt is circling the religious epic Pontius Pilate

Tuesday, January 8th, 2013

As much as I like Brad Pitt, I sometimes get frustrated writing stories about projects he’s attached to because it seems like he attaches himself to every project out there, but doesn’t always sign on the dotted line when it counts.  So if you’re a huge Brad Pitt fan and a huge fan of religious [...]

Brad Pitt is running from zombies in the new photo from World War Z

Friday, January 4th, 2013

2013 will be another good year for zombies. Right off the top of my head I can think of two that will be coming out in the next six months, the first being WARM BODIES and the second being WORLD WAR Z with Brad Pitt. I’m sure there will be another one or two thrown [...]

Killing Them Softly Movie Review

Monday, December 3rd, 2012

Murder, mayhem, mobsters and… talking.  Lots of talking.  Perhaps I’m over-simplifying writer/director Andrew Dominik’s new film KILLING THEM SOFTLY and his ambitious vision to parallel American politics with the leadership of the mob.  But it is important that one doesn’t go into the film thinking they will be watching a typical mafia film.  The murder [...]

Brad Pitt bosses James Gandolfini around in the new Killing Them Softly clip

Monday, November 26th, 2012

There have been a lot of clips and images released for the upcoming Brad Pitt film KILLING THEM SOFTLY, and another one has rolled out today even though we just got a new trailer last week. In this clip Brad Pitt is talking to his associate played by James Gandolfini and is pretty much bossing [...]

Brad Pitt and James Gandolfini star in the new Killing Them Softly trailer

Thursday, November 22nd, 2012

Another trailer for Brad Pitt‘s KILLING THEM SOFTLY has come out and I’ve determined that this is probably a movie that’s near impossible to make a good trailer for.  I haven’t seen the film, but if you count the two domestic trailers and the international trailer we’ve seen, along with all of the TV spots, [...]

Brad Pitt tries to save the world in the first World War Z trailer

Thursday, November 8th, 2012

WORLD WAR Z was originally on my top ten most anticipated movies of 2012, until it was pushed back to 2013 due to an abnormally large amount of production problems.  Those said problems made me skeptical the film could be salvaged since we live in a world where reshoots and last second rewrites usually spells [...]

Brad Pitt and the zombies are absent in the new World War Z teaser poster

Tuesday, November 6th, 2012

Earlier today we posted a clip from the upcoming Brad Pitt film WORLD WAR Z, and right after seeing something so exciting we get a teaser poster that’s very lame. I can think of at least a dozen ways right off the top of my head to promote a film that has zombies chasing after [...]

Brad Pitt has to flee from zombies in the first clip from World War Z

Tuesday, November 6th, 2012

It feels like we’ve been hearing about the upcoming zombie film with Brad Pitt called WORLD WAR Z forever, so it’s with great pleasure that we’re actually getting to see some footage from the film. True it has a television show’s logo plastered all over it and a voiceover from some hostess, but it’s better [...]

Brad Pitt’s Killing Them Softly releases three graphic posters

Thursday, October 25th, 2012

Three new posters have been released for the upcoming gangster film KILLING THEM SOFTLY, and although they don’t have Brad Pitt anywhere on any of them, they are still interesting as you can see the blending of violence and capitalism. I’m not saying that I would run out and buy any of them, but they [...]

Brad Pitt proceeds directly to murder in the new Killing Them Softly international trailer

Thursday, October 18th, 2012

A new international trailer for the gangster film KILLING THEM SOFTLY has been released, and although it contains scenes we’ve already seen, it is set to a great Johnny Cash song so that makes it a little more interesting to watch. Brad Pitt once again is the star of the film and the end of [...]

Brad Pitt looks cool in new photos from Killing Them Softly

Tuesday, October 16th, 2012

It’s only Tuesday and we’ve already had two stories about Brad Pitt this week, which considering the dry spell with news updates earlier this year – that’s exciting. Today we’re getting a new little batch of photos of Brad Pitt from his upcoming film KILLING THEM SOFTLY which hits theaters next month. In the film [...]

Brad Pitt stars in the Chanel No. 5 commercial directed by Joe Wright

Monday, October 15th, 2012

Chanel No. 5 is putting out another star-studded commercial, and this time they have recruited Brad Pitt to stand in front of the camera while director Joe Wright (ANNA KARENINA) works from behind the lens. Of all the celebrity commercials I’ve seen in the last couple of years, this is by far and away the [...]

Michael Fassbender and Javier Bardem in new set photos from The Counselor

Friday, September 21st, 2012

Ridley Scott has a film coming out next Fall called THE COUNSELOR which stars: Michael Fassbender, Javier Bardem, Brad Pitt, Cameron Diaz and Penelope Cruz, and today we get to see a couple of set photos featuring Michael Fassbender and Javier Bardem. Michael Fassbender looks debonair in his suit, but Javier Bardem appears to be [...]

Brad Pitt, James Gandolfini and Ray Liotta in new photos from Killing Them Softly

Friday, September 14th, 2012

Earlier this week we learned that TheWeinstein Company pushed back the upcoming gangster drama KILLING THEM SOFTLY to November in hopes of not only making more money, but possibly also to keep the film fresh in critics minds for awards season. Even though the film is coming out a month later, the marketing continues as [...]

Brad Pitt’s Killing Them Softly has been pushed back to a November release

Wednesday, September 12th, 2012

The upcoming crime drama from director Andrew Dominik, KILLING THEM SOFTLY, which features Brad Pitt sporting a greasy, slicked back hair-do has been pushed back again and will now be released in theaters on November 30th, 2012. Not surprisingly, The Weinstein Company is pushing back the film so it can have the biggest impact on [...]

Brad Pitt and James Gandolfini are featured on the Killing Them Softly poster

Saturday, September 1st, 2012

Just last week we saw a banner featuring Brad Pitt only for the upcoming gangster film KILLING THEM SOFTLY and today we’re getting a full-fledged poster with not only Brad Pitt, but also James Gandolfini, Richard Jenkins and Ray Liotta (but he’s really tiny there in the background so he almost doesn’t count). Not the [...]

Brad Pitt wields a gun in new poster for Killing Them Softly

Friday, August 24th, 2012

A new poster for the upcoming Brad Pitt film KILLING THEM SOFTLY has come out and this writer is sorely disappointed. Well, to be honest I was disappointed with the last trailer and this follow-up poster just makes me want to see this film even less. Whenever you hear that Brad Pitt has signed on [...]

Brad Pitt and Denzel Washington might star in Candy Store for Stephen Gaghan

Friday, August 24th, 2012

How great would it be for Brad Pitt and Denzel Washington to star in a gritty crime thriller from Stephen Gaghan?  Well, perhaps it’s a blessing in disguise that we don’t know too much more about the project, other than it’s called CANDY STORE, because this is very, very early in the development phase.  But [...]

Top Gun, Man On Fire, True Romance and the top ten movies from director Tony Scott

Monday, August 20th, 2012

I was about to call it a night and head off to bed when I checked the news one last time and learned that Tony Scott fell to his death at the age of 68.  Although I was barely awake enough to read the article, let alone write anything, I couldn’t help but take the [...]

Brad Pitt and James Gandolfini star in the Killing Them Softly trailer

Thursday, August 2nd, 2012

We’ve gotten several stills and even an actual clip from Brad Pitt‘s upcoming film, KILLING THEM SOFTLY, but what we haven’t gotten is a trailer for the film, until now.  Even though this is a much smaller film and more of a dramatic character study, it’s going to be interesting to see how America reacts [...]

Brad Pitt rocks the cowboy hat in first set photo from Ridley Scott’s The Counselor

Tuesday, July 31st, 2012

It’s only Tuesday and we’ve already had two new sets of photos of Brad Pitt. The first was posted yesterday as we got a couple new shots of Brad Pitt’s next film KILLING THEM SOFTLY and today we’re getting a set shot from Ridley Scott’s upcoming film THE COUNSELOR. Apparently Mr. Scott is trying to [...]

Brad Pitt is featured in a few new photos from Killing Them Softly

Monday, July 30th, 2012

Brad Pitt’s upcoming film KILLING THEM SOFTLY has probably been one of the least promoted Brad Pitt movies this writer has ever seen. Considering Brad Pitt is probably one of the most loved actors of his generation, I feel his upcoming KILLING THEM SOFTLY has received little love compared to the big summer blockbusters. Sure [...]

Brad Pitt and Michael Fassbender welcome Michael K. Williams to Twelve Years A Slave

Saturday, June 23rd, 2012

If you don’t know who Michael K. Williams is already, you’ll definitely know him in a couple of years.  The talented actor has a couple of big name projects on the way, most notably starring as Ole Dirty Bastard in THE DIRTY WHITE BOY, alongside Dwayne Johnson in SNITCH and THEY DIE BY DAWN with [...]

Brad Pitt’s World War Z hires Damon Lindelof to rewrite part of the script

Friday, June 8th, 2012

Brad Pitt‘s WORLD WAR Z came in at #7 on my top ten most anticipated movies of 2012.  Of course, the list was made in early January and since then, WORLD WAR Z has gone through a series of troubling developments.  It started when the film was pushed back to the summer of 2013, which [...]

Brad Pitt explains Killing Them Softly to Richard Jenkins in a new clip from the film

Saturday, May 26th, 2012

When it was announced that the Brad Pitt starring COGAN’S TRADE was going to be renamed KILLING THEM SOFTLY, many of us were left scratching our head as to why a seemingly good title would be changed to a title that makes us think of a classic Roberta Flack song.  So it was smart move [...]

Brad Pitt’s Cogan’s Trade is now called Killing Them Softly

Saturday, March 3rd, 2012

Hot off the heels of Katherine Bigelow changing her Bin Laden movie from KILL BIN LADEN to ZERO DARK THIRTY, Andrew Dominik has changed his New Orleans crime film, COGAN’S TRADE to KILLING THEM SOFTLY.  Although I like Bigelow’s change, I can’t say I’m impressed with the title “Killing Them Softly”.  It conjures up memories [...]

Oscar Predictions Part 2: Visual Effects, Score, Cinematography and other Technical Awards

Wednesday, February 22nd, 2012

Moving on to Part 2 of our Academy Award Predictions will consist of all the technical awards.  Many might find these to be quite boring however sometimes this is the only spot where my favorite film of the year has a chance at winning (fingers crossed for THE TREE OF LIFE in cinematography).  These are [...]

Brad Pitt, Ray Liotta and James Gandolfini in new images from Cogan’s Trade

Tuesday, February 14th, 2012

It’s odd seeing Brad Pitt with greasy, slicked back hair, but it’s going to be even weirder seeing him in COGAN’S TRADE as a low-life mob enforcer on the hunt for a couple of junkie thieves that stole from the wrong mob game.  But Pitt is reuniting with Andrew Dominik, who directed him in THE [...]

Brad Pitt, George Clooney, Gary Oldman And The Top Ten Random Things I Learned From The 2012 Oscar Nominations

Wednesday, January 25th, 2012

10.  That’s a lot of nominations! – Nine Best Picture nominations were more than anyone expected.  With the new voting system in place, all nine films nominated must have each received a minimum of 5 percent first place votes.  This means each of these movies were an Academy member’s favorite film of the year. 9.  [...]

George Clooney, Rooney Mara, Hugo and The Artist rack up Oscar nominations

Tuesday, January 24th, 2012

The 84th Annual Academy Awards nominations have been announced and the nominations fell where most of us thought they would.  The Best Picture race seems to be down to two, with HUGO gaining steam as it took in 11 nominations, the most overall.  But THE ARTIST managed 10 nominations on its own, keeping its hopes [...]

George Clooney, Brad Pitt and Michelle Williams should all expect Academy Award nominations on January 24th

Tuesday, January 17th, 2012

As we get closer to the Academy Award nominations I thought I would give a prediction of the Oscar Nominees before I get angry at who is nominated, call out who got the shaft and finally predict the actual winners.  Most of the different critics awards have been given out and some of the major [...]

The Dark Knight Rises, The Hunger Games, The Hobbit and the top ten movies to look forward to in 2012

Monday, January 2nd, 2012

2011 has come and gone and admittedly, it was a weak year in movies.  Aside from MI4, none of the big budget blockbusters lived up to their potential.  And with a few exceptions, none of the dramatic Oscar contenders managed to impress.  So with another year behind us, it’s time to look ahead to what [...]

Brad Pitt to take a break from acting in the near future

Tuesday, November 15th, 2011

Posted by: Zack Bruce To say that Brad Pitt is all together quitting the acting game in three years is a little silly in my opinion. When asked during an interview with 60 Minutes on how much longer the actor would like to stay in the business, he answered by saying three years. The interviewer, [...]

The Tree of Life (Blu-ray)

Friday, October 28th, 2011

As you may already know, THE TREE OF LIFE is not an easy film to explain.  Like a great work of art that provokes thought and emotion, THE TREE OF LIFE is something to digest and ponder.  Whether it be a painting or sculpture sometimes art may seem pretentious, thinking it’s something greater than it [...]

Brad Pitt is joining Michael Fassbender and Steve McQueen for Twelve Years A Slave

Tuesday, October 25th, 2011

Posted by: Zack Bruce Although Michael Fassbender has been around for a bit now, I really think that all the attention he’s been receiving his well deserved. Lately he’s been making some great headway by pairing up with director Steve McQueen for films like HUNGER and SHAME. Recently we got news that the pair would [...]

Guy Ritchie wants Brad Pitt to star in his GM financed Cannonball Run remake

Wednesday, October 19th, 2011

Posted by: Brad Sturdivant Sometimes news comes out that no matter how hard you try, you just can’t understand it.  Such is the case with news popping up today that American automaker General Motors is set to provide financing to the planned CANNONBALL RUN remake.  Guy Ritchie is attached to direct the film, which would [...]

Tom Cruise may be chosen over Brad Pitt for Doug Liman’s We Mortals Are

Saturday, October 8th, 2011

Posted by: Brad Sturdivant I continue to be frustrated by various critics and members of the press hailing Tom Cruise’s career as being in near shambles after the disappointing KNIGHT AND DAY.  For those keeping track at home, that’s one movie Cruise has headlined in the last 25 years that hasn’t been a success.  One.  [...]

Moneyball (starring Brad Pitt)

Sunday, September 25th, 2011

There have been many great baseball films.  MAJOR LEAGUE, THE SANDLOT, FIELD OF DREAMS, BULL DURHAM, THE NATURAL – the list goes on and on.  I confess I’m not the biggest baseball fan.  Perhaps it stems from my little league coach verbally abusing me to the point that I wanted to puke my guts out [...]

Brad Pitt is wanted by Warner Brothers for Doug Liman’s All You Need is Kill

Friday, September 23rd, 2011

Posted by: Zack Bruce Brad Pitt will always be a sought after man in Hollywood. He’s a good actor and always brings in the dollars. His most recent film, MONEYBALL is getting good praise so far from critics. I’m hoping I get a chance to see it over the weekend. The next studio to want [...]

Brad Pitt and Mireille Enos on the set of World War Z

Wednesday, September 7th, 2011

Posted by: Brad Sturdivant Filming is still under way on Brad Pitt’s upcoming zombie apocalypse film WORLD WAR Z.  We previously showed you pics of Pitt filming scenes on a boat in Cornwall, England and today we have a few shots of Pitt and costar Mireille Enos filming scenes in Glasgow, Scotland.  These scenes are [...]

Brad Pitt set to produce Ryan Murphy’s The Normal Heart, starring Mark Ruffalo

Thursday, September 1st, 2011

Posted by: Brad Sturdivant These days, Ryan Murphy is best known for being the mastermind behind the television sensation ‘Glee’, but you may have forgotten he directed a decent little film called RUNNING WITH SCISSORS back in 2006.  So his jumping back into the film directing game shouldn’t come as a surprise, even if last [...]

Chris Evans, Ryan Gosling, Taylor Lautner and the best abs in movie history

Thursday, September 1st, 2011

by Lincee Ray When I received the task to come up with a Top 10 list that consisted of Hollywood’s most impressive male abs, I committed right then and there to research relentlessly in order to form the perfect assembly of six packs for this assignment.  If it took hours upon hours to pour over [...]

Terrence Malick’s Tree of Life, starring Brad Pitt and Jessica Chastain heading to Blu-ray in October

Tuesday, August 30th, 2011

Posted by: Brad Sturdivant Whenever I talk to people that haven’t seen Terrence Malick’s TREE OF LIFE, I find it hard to convey proper feelings about the film.  I found it to be a fascinating film and it had a very emotional effect on me, but it’s such an unusual piece of filmmaking that it’s [...]

Set photos from World War Z show vehicles that will soon collide and explode

Friday, August 19th, 2011

Posted by: Zack Bruce Filming on WORLD WAR Z has just begun so we don’t have a ton of fun stuff to look at but there are some early set photos for us to gaze upon. Last week there were photos of Brad Pitt on set in his post-apocalyptic gear including a cowl over his [...]

Brad Pitt may become The Gray Man

Tuesday, August 16th, 2011

Posted by: Kristy Sturdivant Brad Pitt seemed to be flying under the radar for the last couple of years doing only MEGAMIND in 2010 and INGLOURIOUS BASTERDS in 2009, luckily he’s back in the saddle and has lined up a series of films (MONEYBALL and WORLD WAR Z to just name two)  that may include [...]

Brad Pitt will take on zombies in World War Z on December 21, 2012

Wednesday, August 10th, 2011

Posted by: Kristy Sturdivant Looks like December 2012 is going to be quite an exciting month. Paramount just announced that they will be releasing the film WORLD WAR Z from director Marc Forster on December 21st, 2012. That wouldn’t be such big news, except there are already three other anticipated films opening on that day [...]

Bryan Cranston could have a role in World War Z with Brad Pitt

Monday, August 8th, 2011

Posted by: Zack Bruce Bryan Cranston has been looked at in a different perspective ever since taking on the role of Walter White on BREAKING BAD. He’s also been cast in everything as of late from RED TAILS to TOTAL RECALL. Recently, Cranston had to drop out of GANGSTER SQUAD because of scheduling issues. Now [...]
